Description	A photograph of the Elliston-Buford house, at 2300 Elliston Place, Nashville, Tennessee. The residence, originally built circa 1881, was the home of Lizinka Elliston Buford and husband Edward L. Buford, a Nashville businessman and Confederate War veteran. Lizinka's father was William Robert Elliston, the son of Nashville Mayor Joseph Thorpe Elliston (1814-1817). Circa 1928, the five-acre Elliston Place site, with its two mansions, was purchased in the building of the Father Ryan High School campus. The Roman Catholic school was named for Father Abram Joseph Ryan (1839-1886), often referred to as the "poet-priest of the South." Photographed by the Nashville architect Charles Wesley Warterfield, Jr. (1926-1998); the architectural photograph forms part of the Charles Warterfield Architectural Collection.
